      So does ponting the nose straight at the bandit give them higher chance of them getting lock/radar signature,because the radar is feeding its signal straight into the bandit radar like a beam but if you turn away from it,the beams can't see eachother that well from a side angle?

      This would be awesome. I would love to see it with GS in both aircraft too. This will paint a clearer picture as GS is almost always the better pilot in these scenarios. I mean here he is beating the Eurofighter in an F-16, were it the other way round I would imagine he would have the fight won rather quickly.

    Just got back from a trip to London and they were doing an annual show of force for the RAF one day while we were walking in Leister Square. Got to see a couple of Typhoons in formation with a RAF 737, then about a 12 ship in tight formation (only had a brief chance to see them and couldn't get an accurate count). That was followed by about 6 F-35s in formation as well. Very neat stuff!

Wouldn't you have to wait for the missile to turn PITBULL and then change direction and lose the lock?

    Quick questions - why is there no LA and what does it mean when the two screens flash `X' s?

    How do you get missile launch warnings the moment a meteor is launched. Wouldn't it it go active only very late like the AMRAAM?

    Why do you fly with the LITENING pod when you're kitted for BVR? Won't it just cause unnecessary drag for no gain? It's not like you're using it for air-to-air.

      In real life they fly with it for Visual ID the drag is negligible

    Satisfying to see the "underdog" come out on top in a bvr fight. Little bits of $105 million super fighter everywhere and another $10 million in Mach 4 missiles searching for targets. Nice job!

    GS...Have Towed Decoy's been tried to fight off a missile that has locked onto you in a pinch?
